Risk Setting By Session and Other Risk Setting Changes

It would be great if a few modifications for risk settings could be made. We need the option for per session set, e.g. Overnight and RTH. That way, say I want to limit myself to 2 trades at night, but 6 trades overall, I would get locked out of overnight after 2 trades and would be allowed to use my remaining 4 trades during RTH. Another great thing would be to allow us to manually lock out even after setting risk parameters for the day. Say I have max trades set at 6 but I know I am not reading he market right after 3 trades, I am unable to lock myself out because the daily risk settings have already been set and they allow for 3 more trades. My willpower is not strong enough to resist those 3 trades even though I know I should!

    Add session based DLL and PDPT

    Many people trade multiple sessions but need more rules based on session. I would love to set a $600 liquidate and block on my Asia session, but then still be able to trade Ny. This seems extremely simple to do from a coding perspective. Please make this happen.

    Allowed Trading Times

    Would love to be able to set a strict time window when I can trade, preferably unchangeable at the start of the session.

    For example, I would like to only trade the NY session every day, no other times.

    At the moment, I’m currently using the manual lockout in the evening and locking myself out until the start of the NY session. Would be great if there was a way to automate it and make it unchangeable.

    Thanks!

      in the custom lockout tab , we can choose the time to ‘start’ the lockout but don’t have an ‘lockout end’ button.

      Example: When I sit down every morning an hour ahead of the open. I want to set a lockout for the first 25 minutes of the open, not lockout at the open for the rest of the day.

      I think this request kind of mirrors your request is why I posted mine here also. cheers

    Lock Risk Settings for Multiple Days

    The similar posts to this have been marked as “Finished” so I’m creating a new one. Would really like to see a “Lock Risk Settings” for multiple days option. While a trader should have the discipline to set this each day, it would be a simple feature to add that would protect traders from emotional fluctuations throughout the trading week.
